I replaced the background behind this 1929 Cord that I photographed in a museum. The lens I used was a 24-105mm, and I didn't have anything wider with me at the time. I couldn't move back any further because there was another car in the place where I really wanted to position myself, and this meant I couldn't get the entire car from bumper to bumper in the frame. Therefore, I took two shots of it. The first one included the front bumper and most of the car, while the second one included the rear bumper and most of the car. I then used Photoshop to cut and paste the various parts together to show the entire length of this remarkable classic car. I took many compositions standing both in front of and behind the car, but for this side view I had to resort to some ingenuity in Photoshop.

Richard Farrington - Jim, you have been unknowingly mentoring me for quite some time. Thanks to you and your tutorials,I have become passionate about photographing & Photoshopping classic cars. Nothing intrigues me more than to painstakingly select a vintage beauty and marry it with an appropriate background.
Goodness knows where you find the time to do all that you do. Keep up the good work!
Rick
